Presentation Secrets
In capsule form: Steve Jobs' Presentation Secrets
Steve Jobs 10 Presentation SecretsI found this presentation today and was totally blown away. I have been giving lectures and creating slides for at least a decade. There is always room for improvement for everyone and in every discipline. Although, this blog is about Instructional Design and online learning crafting an engaging presentation is extremely important. We may not be selling a product for a business, but we are selling something. As instructional designers we are looking for students to buy-in to the content we are selling them. The way we present and tell the story is critical in keeping them engaged.
I particularly like finding out the behind the scenes of Steve Jobs' preparation. He actually used good old-fashioned pen to paper to map out his story. How many of us just open up the presentation software and get to work? I do. However, it might actually make the process smoother and faster if the layout comes first.
